Friday’s Top Five…

…last minute Valentine date ideas.

::All images via Google.com::

1. For the homebody, have a movie night. Grab some , rental and just have a low key evening on the couch with your sweetie. Grab a classic romance like An Affair to Remember or Sabrina. It’s easy and mostly free.

2. Go shopping… and I don’t mean at the mall. Go junking at a local antique store or to a local farmer’s market. It may sound corny, but even if you’re not into that sort of thing, digging through antique items could not only be fun, but something different. Who knows, you may even find something you can’t live without.

3. It may be last minute, but search for a local class in your area. Take a wine tasting course, a cooking class or even pottery lesson together.

4. Make the season work to your advantage. Is it cold? Go ice skating. Warm, have a picnic. Mild? Take a quiet walk or hike in the middle of nowhere, just the two of you. Still want a picnic but don’t have the weather? Have one, right in the middle of the living room floor.

5. Go out to a nice restaurant, but ONLY order dessert. Forgo the expensive dinner, grab something quick and then grab a sweet or two (or three) of the menu and indulge!

   What are your plans for Valentine’s Day? Do any of these sound fun? I think so, I’m all about #5!

    My boyfriend and I looove treating ourselves to a nice dessert. We do the quick + cheap dinner followed by a nice dessert date probably too often! But we love it 🙂 Love all of these ideas! Wish the weather was warm enough here to do something outdoors! Have a great weekend! xo

    go for the glam

    Those are actually all right up my alley! I love movie night (even though we pretty much have that every night) and I love love love going to get dessert! How about wine tasting + dessert 🙂 That is perfection right there!

    Light on the menu indulge on the dessert is a fine idea.

    The single lady in me wants to do nothing… but me, the real me will probably go volunteer at this home opening ceremony, because I can do whatever I want on Valentines. 😉 It's that I Do What I Want Syndrome (IDWIWS). I tell you, I've got it bad.

    We are getting a heart shaped pizza from Boston Pizza and hanging out with my 2 favorite men and loves of my life. Then on Saturday my husband and I are going to have high tea. Great ideas.

    OHHHH I love date idea number 5! I have never thought to do that, but it is such a cute idea…especially since we never really do anything huge for Valentine's day this would be a fun way to celebrate

    I plan on making cupcakes for coworkers, but for date night I was thinking of making dinner. If it is warm enough, maybe moving it up to the roof of our apartment to stargaze and see out towards the bay area all lit up. My hunny will be so happy since I rarely volunteer to cook lol.=]
